Belong. Connect. Grow. with KBR!
KBR’s National Security Solutions team provides high-end engineering and advanced technology solutions to our customers in the intelligence and national security communities. In this position, your work will have a profound impact on the country’s most critical role – protecting our national security.
Why Join Us?
Innovative Projects: KBR’s work is at the forefront of engineering, logistics, operations, science, program management, mission IT and cybersecurity solutions.
Collaborative Environment: Be part of a dynamic team that thrives on collaboration and innovation, fostering a supportive and intellectually stimulating workplace.
Impactful Work: Your contributions will be pivotal in designing and optimizing defense systems that ensure national security and shape the future of space defense.
We are seeking an expert technical lead to embed with the Test Resource Management Center's (TRMC) National Cyber Range (NCR). In this role, you will be the trusted advisor shaping the future of cybersecurity testing for the Department of War (DoW). You will guide the strategic planning and hands-on execution of advanced cybersecurity evaluations. Your primary mission will be to direct comprehensive vulnerability analyses, penetration tests, and full-scope red team operations against the nation's most mission-critical systems.
In this role, you will be expected to operate at the intersection of deep technical analysis and strategic impact. You will not only oversee high-consequence cybersecurity tests but also translate your findings into defensible reports that guide senior-level decisions.
The challenge spans the full technology stack—from enterprise networks and industrial control systems (ICS) to low-level electronic buses and embedded platforms. We need a systems-level thinker who can pivot from analyzing complex technical risk to articulating clear operational impact.
This is a dynamic environment where you must constantly challenge assumptions as technologies and adversary tactics evolve. To succeed, you must have a broad IT foundation, a passion for rapid learning, and an intense curiosity for the inner workings of U.S. weapons platforms, offensive/defensive cyber systems, and the very latest exploitation techniques.
